Arcane and Bethesda have delayed Deathloop again amid the impact of COVID-19. The time-bound action-adventure game was originally supposed to be released in late 2020, before the studio and publisher pushed back the release date to May 21. But now, instead of waiting another six weeks or so to get your hands on Deathloop, you’ll have to be patient for several more months. Bethesda will release the game on September 14 on PC and PlayStation 5 (where it will be a console exclusive for a year).
Suggestion For You:
“We’re committed to quality and preserving our team’s ambitions for Deathloop while ensuring the health and safety of everyone at Arkane,” the studio wrote in an apologetic statement on Twitter. “We’ll be using this extra time to accomplish our goal: create a fun, stylish, and mind-bending player experience.”
Until today, Deathloop was one of the biggest games on the spring calendar. Instead, by moving to late summer, it will appear just before the typical crowded fall release window. Coincidentally, Xbox now owns Bethesda, so make of the delay what you will.
